GreenBack Pure Biochar

GreenBack Pure Biochar is the best in the Market

GreenBack Biochar's high adsorption effect is observable by the shrinkage to the plastic bag within hours in which it is sealed in. It meets the standard of
IBI (International Biochar Initiative)
specification for certification and Class 1 criteria for organic carbon.

Our Products

All Green, All Organic.

Organic Compost

Organic compost is made from horticultural waste such as leaves, grass, tree clippings, branches and shrubs.

Biochar is a classic "inert" ingredient; it creates an environment that enhances chemical processes essential for biology, especially digestion.
Biochar also changes the properties of dung, making it lighter, drier, easier to handle. This eliminates toxic trouble at its source, to further improve health. And since dung has digested biochar, this improves other properties of the dung.
Biochar is also a catalyst to facilitate populations of microbes. Many bacteria, fungi and other simple life forms prefer biochar as habitat, and take up residence in its micropores. Biochar can increase nutrient adsorption, retention and transport to improve the liver-intestine circuit.

Water Treatment

Adsorbent for the removal of a wide variety of organic and inorganic pollutants dissolved in water

Remove contaminants such as chlorine, chloramines, volatile organic compounds (VOC) and disinfection byproducts in purification of drinking water

Capable of distributing chemicals, particles or charged species on its large hydrophobic internal surface, thus making them accessible to distinct pollutants present in water

About GreenBack

Organic Compost

GreenBack operates a modern composting plant that uses its proprietary technology to manufacture quality compost that underwent a period of pasteurization/sanitation at above 55°C for no less than 12 days. This is to ensure that all pathogens, weed seeds and soil bacteria are destroyed. Our product does not emit unpleasant odours and is 100% free of pests such as millipedes and harmful bacteria.

Biochar

GreenBack produces quality Biochar from wood waste of parks, gardens, and timber sawmills. The raw wood is subjected to a pyrolysis process that reaches temperatures above 600°C so that the highest quality of Biochar can be produced. The manufacturing process is done industrially, so that large volumes of consistent quality Biochar can be maintained. GreenBack Biochar meets the standard of IBI (International Biochar Initiative) specification for certification and Class 1 criteria for organic carbon(more than 70%).

Activated Carbon

GreenBack wood based Virgin Activated Carbon contains high absorption capacity because of the micropores that produce high internal surface area. It is commonly used to absorb unwanted organic compounds in the air or gases that causes foul odour. GreenBack Activated Carbon can also be applied in:

Water Treatment

Food Production

Industrial Processes

Odour Control

About Us

The company was founded in Singapore in the year 2007 to recycle large commercial volumes of organic agricultural and horticultural waste into valuable high quality organic fertilizer/compost. Using a unique fermentation and manufacturing process, it is able to recycle as much as 200 tons per day of organic waste. Other carbon-rich products that the company produces are Biochar and activated carbon from natural wood wastes using its proprietary pyrolysis technology.

Many environmental experts see biochar as one of the biggest agents of change in winning the battle against Global Warming. Biochar is widely known to be used in more than 50 applications across many industries like agriculture, water treatment, storm water management, odour control, husbandry, landscaping and many others.

In April 2016, GreenBack successfully produced biochar of international grade. GreenBack Biochar meets and exceeds the standards set by International Biochar Initiative (IBI). IBI Standards for biochar is one of the leading benchmarks for high quality biochar produced worldwide.

GreenBack has become a manufacturer and supplier of choice to many of our customers. Over 10,000 of our loyal customers can testify to our commitment to producing the best quality products for the market.

GreenBack is an ISO 9001:2008 certified company and all its manufacturing processes are subjected to a strict management system to ensure the quality of its products are of the highest standards.

Interesting Facts

Q: what's the difference between charcoal and biochar?

A: By definition biochar is "A solid material obtained from the thermochemical conversion of biomass in an oxygen-limited environment." While charcoal is "a dark or black porous carbon prepared from vegetable or animal substances (as from wood by charring in a kiln from which air is excluded)"

"The highly fertile dark earth soils of the Amazon River basin indicate that a form of biochar has been used in agriculture for many hundreds of years. These dark soils, known as Terra Preta, contain a fine grained, carbon rich material. This material comes from charred organic materials like manure, crop residue and bones that was added to the soil. Without sophisticated kilns and ovens to produce modern biochar, this ancient material was likely made by setting alight a pile of organic material before covering it with dirt to eliminate oxygen but hold in the heat from the fire which, in turn, baked the organic matter."

"The technique of using biochar to improve the fertility of soils originated in the Amazon basin at least 2500 years ago. The native Indians of the region would create biochar and incorporate it in small plots of land from 1 - 80 hectares in size. Terra Preta, as it is known in this area of Brazil, remains highly fertile until today, even with little or no application of fertilizers. And this is in a region of the world known for its highly infertile soils."
